The Greatest Beast Trainer: Building a Nation on the Back of a Dragon - Chapter 35

Chapter 35: Withered Wings of an Angel!

Hearing Solomon’s words, Mingyue felt the awkwardness in the air disappear.

“Oh-oh, hello, my name is Nicole.”

Nicole came to Mingyue’s side.

Her attention was on the person behind Solomon. She did not see her until Solomon said it.

But when Nicole saw the red lines on Mingyue’s skin, her eyes became unnatural.

Mingyue noticed this and slowly lowered her head.

As expected, not everyone was like Solomon who was not afraid of her appearance.

“Nicole, I’m starving. So I’m going to eat.”

Solomon felt that the atmosphere was not right and quickly changed the topic. After working for so long, he was indeed a little hungry. But, of course, the smoked jerky he had eaten in Jack’s gang just now was not enough to fill his stomach.

As his physical fitness improved, his appetite also increased.

Mingyue followed the two of them into the house.

When she entered, she felt a feeling that she had never felt before. However, she could not describe this feeling.

The iron pot was emitting steam, and the fragrance of meat wafted out.

Nicole quickly served Solomon a bowl of hot rice. Mingyue, who was at the side, was extremely embarrassed, as if she was invisible.

Solomon quickly gave Nicole a look. Why was Nicole acting so strangely today? Did she not see that the guest was still hungry?

Nicole reacted and went to the kitchen to serve Mingyue another bowl.

The situation became awkward again.

“Nicole, go and get the things off Snake.”

Hearing Solomon’s words, Nicole secretly heaved a sigh of relief and quickly ran out.

Nicole raised a small knife and rushed out of the door as if there was something scary in the room.

“I’m sorry. I don’t know what’s wrong with Nicole today. She’s acting a little strange.”

Solomon did not know what to say anymore. Finally, he casually said a few words to ease the awkward situation.

Mingyue shook her head. She had no interest in the food in front of her. Although her stomach was starving, she did not have any appetite.

“Where are the flowers?”

Mingyue raised her head and looked at Solomon. Right now, she only wanted to see the plant with wings in her heart.

Even her tone became hurried. It seemed that this plant with wings was indeed very important to her.

“They are over there. You can look for them yourself.”

Solomon pointed at the sacks. There were too many things. He did not know where to put them.

As for whether Mingyue would play any tricks, Solomon was not worried. He did not care whose territory this was.

Moreover, with Solomon’s current strength, subduing a girl would be too easy.

Hearing Solomon’s words, Mingyue did not hesitate. Instead, she directly opened sacks after sacks and started searching.

After that, Solomon walked out. He wanted to help Nicole.

There were still a lot of things outside. It would be faster to move them out together.

“Why aren’t you moving?”

As soon as Solomon walked out, he saw Nicole standing there in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking.

“Solomon, you’re moving all the items from the Jack bandits, right?”

Nicole looked at the many sacks in front of her and could not help but ask.

With so many sacks, how many items must they be carrying? Moreover, it seemed to be quite heavy.

Solomon did not immediately answer Nicole. Instead, he thought for a while and then said, “I took some, but I didn’t take all of them. I didn’t prepare enough sacks.”

“About three-tenths of them.”

What he said was the truth. He indeed did not take all the items from the Jack bandits. However, now that Nicole had mentioned it, Solomon still felt that it was a bit of a pity.

Solomon did not know how much he had taken. Who would think about this when moving things? He just needed to make a rough estimate.

Anyway, this operation could be said to be very successful. Solomon was not greedy.

If the heavens could give me another chance, I would definitely bring a few more sacks.

“If that’s the case, it doesn’t seem like I took too many.”

Nicole pointed at the sacks that were tied to the Rainbow Snake’s body.

Since then, the things had already been moved over, and after hearing Solomon’s words, Nicole really did not feel that there were too many things.

Thinking of this, Nicole completely turned into a money-grubber, counting the things with her fingers.

There were colorful clothes, a strange fish, and some miscellaneous items.

Solomon thought that he had to build another house. Otherwise, all these things would pile up in the house. Then, not only would the air in the house become smaller, but the quality of the house would also drop by a lot.

“Ah!”

Suddenly, a scream interrupted Solomon and Nicole’s train of thought.

The two of them rushed over when they heard the sound. They saw the Mingyue sitting on the ground with a strange plant in her hand. The plant had wings on it. It should be the plant that the bright Mingyue had been searching for.

The root of the plant had been completely bent. Therefore, it could be said that it had almost withered.

“Solomon, the flower is dead.”

Mingyue’s face turned pale. It was as if she had lost all her strength as she sat on the ground.

No one knew better than her the importance of this flower.

“Isn’t it just a flower? Can’t we keep looking for a replacement?”

Solomon said.

He felt that it was a little strange. But, other than its special appearance, what other special uses did this flower have.

After hearing Solomon’s words, Mingyue did not have much of a reaction. So instead, she explained to Solomon.

After listening to Mingyue’s introduction, Solomon knew that this flower was what Mingyue had found to treat the red lines on his face.

It could be said that it was crucial.

However, the flower had already withered.

Solomon revealed an apologetic expression. He did not know that this flower was so important to Mingyue.

Mingyue shook her head, indicating that it was fine.

“In six months at most, I will completely turn into a monster. After that, it’s too late.”

Saying this, Mingyue could not help but cry.

She had finally gotten the news, but she did not expect the heavens to play such a big joke on her.

“Don’t cry. It’s not like you can’t be saved.”

Solomon said indifferently and picked up the angel wings that had fallen to the ground.

The system had told him previously that he could domesticate plants.

After hearing Solomon’s words, Mingyue felt that it was ridiculous. The plants had already withered to such a state. How could they still be saved? She thought that Solomon had deliberately said that to comfort her.

Even Nicole’s gaze when she looked at Solomon became strange. In her heart, she wondered if Solomon had a fever and damaged his brain.

It was definitely impossible to save plants that had withered. This was a common understanding in everyone’s hearts.
